I may be wrong ...Looks to be a Thunderbird

Talked to the guy and he has the out drive. I want parts off of the boat, however can do with out if another wants the whole thing. He does not know what he has just want to be rid of it. He went down to 250 if I got it this weekend

No place to put it...inboard out,,,not my cup of tea. and I have a 69 T-Bird that I need to get to; along with many other boats

Call him and see if he will send you some photos. I do not think the trailer is road worthy...You are welcome to borrow my 16Ft flat bed and hold it till I come there in Feb to do a Remodel job....BTW know of any (2 guys) that will want a 2 to 3 day job R & R kitchen equ late Feb

Trailer has a remover winch a ball to hook the trailer you have loaded to and surge brakes...great for all of the boats that I find





The winch is an ATV winch bought at Harbor freight fgr. I bolted it to a Trailer Coupler (stock # 66951) I run the cables to the bat with long jumper cables

I can use the winch on the back of any car or truck with a 2" ball and on my trailer as to pull the boats up. On my truck I can use it on the front for I have a receiver there

Makes it great for pulling boats out of the hole that they have been in for years

By that one picture from the CG post it looks more like a Johnson/Evenrude

TallTexan-

That's a pretty cool rig... Looks like it would come in REALLY handy for hauling boats- Especially those on 'questionable' trailers.

Great idea mounting the receiver hitch up there on the trailer, makes winching up and tying down much easier I'll bet. Very cool, TT.

Thanks for the offer. I'm going to pass and wait on something else. I'm actually up in Kentwood, last exit on 55 before Ms. I don't know anybody that could help you with the kitchen. Joe

I would say that is T-bird. There are a lot of them in this area.

Were they made in Florida?
One showed up here a couple of years ago I passed on it. Wish I didn't now It was a nice little tri-hull set up for fishing.

Yep, that's a Thunderbird. I have had my '72 TBird 19' cuddy for over 20 years, now. They are well-made, fairly heavy boats. With the Mercruiser I/O it has been extremely reliable.

And don't forget Flipper. The big T-bird was dad's patrol boat on Flipper.

He still has it...He wrote me today and will to trade

Someone most likely could grab it for $125

Here is what he wrote me today

yes its a thunder bird looking to trade for a dirt bike atv or car or truck

Yep, I remember that boat boat on Flipper.
